How you can be an ally to us females

Pulled from the website we would use as a model: http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Allies_training
"Often, when a sexist incident happens, we are so busy being shocked and amazed that we can't react quickly. Sometimes days can go by before we figure out what to do. This is true for even the most experienced and educated men and women.

The solution is practice. By running through theoretical scenarios in a friendly environment, we have a better chance at responding in the real world. It's like practicing a presentation.

This workshop is designed for men who want to help stop sexism - male allies - and who want specific suggestions on how to respond when they encounter a sexist incident."
